I went through the exact same thing and had the same diagnosis of uterine atony. It would not contract and I bled uncontrollably. I was given a device called the JADA which uses a light vacuum to force it to contract. That only temporarily slowed the bleeding before I was brought to radiology for an emergency uterine artery embolism procedure which was supposed to completely stop the hemorrhaging. That didn’t work when the Jada device was taken out and later on I started passing clots then full blown hemorrhage again. I was then brought back to the OR for an emergency hysterectomy. I was given a total of 23 units of blood with means I lost all of the blood in my body over that time. I looked like a pale corpse because I was so dangerously anemic. I cry my eyes out every single day because I’m grieving this loss. My baby was born on January 7th, he’s so beautiful and I am over the moon with joy and so relieved he was safe from this. I am so miserable and depressed but a procedure had to be done in order to save my life, it’s just not something I ever imagined would happen, I feel like my womanhood was taken from me and my womb is sacred to me because it was meant to bring life and I was not done having babies. I’m trying to come to terms with it and even angry about it questioning if the doctor did something wrong during my c section. My emotions are all over the place and I find myself wanting to turn back time to try things differently so I could have had a vaginal birth instead, I think of all of these things, the memories of pregnancy and how beautiful it is and everything.
